PETALING JAYA: The recently concluded Semenyih polls saw a total of 35 cases of election offences and misconduct, the highest number among the six by-elections held since the 14th General Election, according to the Coalition for Free and Fair Elections (Bersih 2.0).

“It’s by far the highest number of offences – recorded by Bersih. There are other groups that observe the election process that we don’t know about,” said its chairman Thomas Fann.
